Pacquiao and Carrie Bradshaw to Help Global Crisis

customer: day, kape (coffee please)
tindera: tag PhP10 na ra ba. (it already costs PhP10)
customer: di ba, tag PhP8 ra na? (wasnt it PhP8 then?)
tindera: nimahal naman gud ang gasolina (oil price already increased)
customer: ah, ayaw na lang butanggi gasolina! (ah, dont mix my coffee, then, with oil)

comedy does follow harsh times, especially for Filipinos.

and i think, it is becoming a classic comedy of the time. what is funnier is expensive needs and cheaper wants. at the rise of oil, rice and power, there is an exodus of midnight sales, budget flights, cheap offers and stable luxury lines.

the funniest part, though, is people are busy joggling their money for the cheap tricks, and not the basic kicks.

"there really is no relief in sight," an oil company executive claimed on rising oil prices.
well, that goes too for other goods, given our government [sigh].

so, who else's shoulder should we cry on during harsh times? Pacquiao, Carrie Bradshaw, Big Brother, Eric(sson) and Moto(rola), Gucci Gang, Google, ...........?

YES! hard times require entertainment to lighten up the day, but Pacquiao's lethal combination of shuffled footwork against Diaz will not solve hunger.

harsh times require creative twists.

for one, walk, just like Baguio City who plans for a 6 carless days. as for another joke goes:

babae: nong! sakay ko!
drivr: cge! asa man ka?
bbae: diha lang sa kanto! naay bayad ang bata?
drivr: ay libre lang kay duol man.
bbae: ah, ang mosabak naay bayad?
drivr: wala gihapon!
bbae: cge nak! sabaka ko...
